touchconsulting Ltd is a small organisation that co-designs and delivers big quality improvement programmes for the education and training profession
We are delighted the Education and Training Foundation has commissioned touchconsulting Ltd to deliver Practice Development Groups in the East and West Midlands.
touchconsulting Ltd is delivering Practice Development Groups on behalf of the Education and Training Foundation. PDGs form part of the Education and Training Foundation’s Practitioner Research pathway. Practitioners can join the research pathway at various points; including practitioner-led enquiry, small-scale research projects or postgraduate research
PDGs sit firmly within practitioner-led enquiry, and are driven by participants who work collaboratively to undertake a maths/English inquiry related to their learners and teaching practice. They plan, do and review; regrouping and discussing what worked (and didn’t) with their PDG members, and then go again.
Applications are now open for participants.
We are also delighted to launch new PDG Exchanges for Midlands practitioners.
